                            ❓ What is HPV (Human Papillomavirus)?
HPV is a common virus that affects both men and women. There are many types of HPV, and while some are harmless, others can cause serious health problems, including cervical cancer.
🔗 How is HPV connected to cervical cancer?
Certain high-risk types of HPV can infect the cells of the cervix. Over time, if the virus does not go away on its own, it can cause these cells to become abnormal and develop into cancer. In fact, HPV is the leading cause of cervical cancer worldwide.
💉 How can you protect yourself?
The good news is that cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers. Getting vaccinated against HPV is the best way to protect yourself. The vaccine is safe, effective, and works best when given at a young age, but adults can benefit from it too.
